Nice one Naznatips.

BTW, did anyone else notice the magic meter? It shows up in the back of the box, though it is not present in the game. I wonder how that happened. 

 Yeah and a good co op singleplayer would be awesome and hundreds of A.I. Mario friends who attack bowsers castle.

Its called Pikmin...

Look to the screenshot of Mario again and look to the orange and blue thing behind him that is typical Nintendo.

And if you read this topic you would noticed that I include as an Example ^^ of an good nintendo detailed game.

And Jak is a good example of the details thank you, every personage is great!

Yeah, that actually means this screenshot isn't from the final version, and the graphics aren't actually quite as good as the final.  Sorry about that, I just grabbed a pic off Gamespot.  Still, the point is clear.  Graphics always change quite a bit from the beginning to the end of the generation.  There is no reason at all to compare detail between 2 games that are almost that entire generation apart.

@ Don wii this is first person? And where is Mario and his friends who are attacking bowsers castle in an FPS kind of game
That I would love?

Pikmin is really FPS for you? 

 Oh. I though you were referencing a new game, not adding to what you wanted to see on the FPS.

Nah. I was reffering that I would love a Mario FPS.
A good Mario FPS with a good co op singleplayer.

"co op singleplayer"? That's an oxymoron.

If I remember correctly, before that game was released there was a discussion with the Art Lead about Super Mario Sunshine and he commented that the texturing in every level was designed to emphasize the climate; that Delphino Plaza (the level you brought up) was designed to look sunwashed while other areas were designed with other looks in mind. If you actually had played the game you would have noticed how diverse and how much detail had been put into every level of the game.

Screenshots will never do justice to most Gamecube games because they were captured from RCA inputs on really crappy videocards ...
